Lost

I’ve been listening for your footsteps

I’ve been waiting for your call

I’ve spent far too many mornings

Sitting staring at this wall

The one I built between us

That cannot be torn down

So, I walk these empty hallways

But you’re nowhere to be found

There are shadows in each doorway

There are echoes in my head

And the memories of someone

Or something long since dead

I’ve been chasing endless rainbows

Looking for that pot of gold

But I always find them empty

I’m alone, so lost and cold

I’ve been playing all those sad songs

I’ve been longing for a friend

Not that far from where I started

So much closer to the end
